"Bought this car new in 2003 & still have it after 9 years. Works great. Love to go travelling & camping with it. Unlike big clumsy SUVs, this is nimble on the high ways, little city streets as well tight off road trails."

"When I first got this car I loved it. It had 63,000 miles on it. I had it for four years and It was constantly in and out of the shop. I had to take it to the Land Rover dealer because most mechanics do not know how to work on them. First the ignition switch had to be replaced. Then the battery and brakes. The fuel pump died with no warning which is a common problem with this vehicle. Land Rover sent a recall letter for the issue after I had to pay to get it repaired. It was constantly leaking coolant and the mechanics could not figure out why. It was driving fine until one day the engine died at 98,000 miles and the dealership gave me a quote of $12000 for a new engine. Never again!"

"While our Land Rover was surprisingly reliable for about 5 years before it fell apart, Land Rovers are absolutely overpriced (people buy it for the name and prestige) and practically "illegally" expensive to maintain. There is absolutely no reason to pay $169.99 for an oil change when your car is under warranty. The whole Land Rover brand is poor value for the money and the cars are built for a short life span. If you want value, do not buy the Land Rover brand. If you have a lot of money to spend, don't worry about your image, save $30-40,000 and give it to your favorite charity."

"There are some annoying design flaws, like the seats should move electrically for a luxury line, but they are manual. Flimsy cup holder's lac of engineering force you to maneuver the vehicle constantly cautious of spillage.I dont know if the decision to put the hood release lever on the passenger side,& gas cap that requires a key is european, outdated, or just poor design."
